Strobe

Strobe is an internal signal generator for on-camera clocking functions.

Valid when any of the SyncOut modes are set to Strobe1. Strobe allows the added

functionality of duration and delay, useful when trying to sync a camera expo-

sure to an external strobe.

Strobe1ControlledDuration – Enum – R/W

When enabled, the Strobe1Duration control is valid.

Strobe1Delay – Uint32 – R/W

Delay of start of strobe signal.

Strobe1Duration – Uint32 – R/W

Duration of strobe signal.

Strobe1Mode – Enum – R/W

Associates the start of strobe signal with one of the following image capture

signals:

Possible values: On, Off Default: Off

Range: [0 - Camera dependent] Default: 0 Units: μs

AcquisitionTriggerReady Active once the camera has been recognized by the

host PC and is ready to start acquisition

FrameTriggerReady Active when the camera is in a state that will accept

the next frame trigger

FrameTrigger [Default] Active when an image has been initiated

to start. This is a logic trigger internal to the cam-

era, which is initiated by an external trigger or soft-

ware trigger event

Exposing Active for the duration of sensor exposure

FrameReadout Active at during frame readout, i.e. the transferring

of image data from the CCD to camera memory

Imaging Active during exposure and readout

Acquiring Active during an acquisition stream

SyncIn1 Active when there is an external trigger at SyncIn1

SyncIn2 Active when there is an external trigger at SyncIn2

SyncIn3 Active when there is an external trigger at SyncIn3

SyncIn4 Active when there is an external trigger at SyncIn4
